Who Are You?

She wondered if it was 'bad' if you couldn't answer the question 'Who are you?'

She saw people who knew all about themselves. They knew their own style, their own manner of speaking, what slang they used, how they typed, how they acted, what they did.

Some had everything down.

She was always saying how 'she was still figuring out who she was.' She had been saying that phrase for some time now. Then it hit her.

Maybe... Maybe people aren't supposed to know who they are. As they continue on through life, they change. There really isn't a constant.

When people ask 'Who are you?' the usual response is a name. What they're called by. They don't respond with details about themselves. So maybe 'Who are you?' is really 'What's your name?'

People have characteristics. Someone might be able to answer 'Who are you right now?' But they cannot answer 'Who are you?' as a general forever. You just never know.

So she'll stick to her usual answer, and need no explanation.

'I am Kayla.'

Reasoning, Experiencing

There doesn't always have to be a reason.

Doing things on a whim can lead to adventures, new places, new faces, new experiences, new perspective. Sometimes you just gotta do it to do it.

A person may be looked upon with doubt and confusion at the mention of trying something seemingly random, but that person may lead you to something you never even imagined experiencing.

She wanted an adventure. Wanted something new. Not really a reason for it, just a want. An almost need.

'Can we just drive somewhere random?' She asked him out of pure intuition, or maybe instinct? Maybe just a general attraction. She wasn't sure.

'I mean, let's not know where we're going. Let's go somewhere we haven't been and just drive.'

He was fine with it, but they ended up getting the idea to go to their park instead. They wanted to walk the trails in the winter.

It had ended up being too cold. They went back to her place and watched a movie.

The night had ended well. She was falling for him and he for her, but that wasn't the point in this sense.

Though that point being bigger than this, she still never went on her adventure. She forgot.

It wasn't a big deal. But it could be.
